In a move that feels less like industry news and more like fashion fate, Pierpaolo Piccioli has been named the new creative director of Balenciaga. And with that announcement, a collective exhale from fashion purists around the world because finally, the maison that once defined silhouette, structure, and sartorial splendor may be poised for a true return to form.
Recently I had the pleasure of reimagining the professional dress code for a small consulting tech company and let me tell you, it was fun. But it was also intentional. The goal? To create an environment where professionalism doesn’t require conformity, and where style is a tool, not a limitation. They wanted guidelines that were polished but not rigid, inclusive without being vague, and stylish while remaining workplace-appropriate
Tucked inside San Diego’s East Village like a caffeinated fever dream, The Invigatorium isn’t just another quirky coffee spot, it’s a full-blown brunch fantasy with dinosaurs on the walls and flavor bombs on your plate. And let’s just say, I’m very, very into it. Let’s start with the breakfast taco, deceptively simple, wildly delicious. Soft, warm tortilla cradling fluffy eggs, a smoky kick of sausage & bacon, and just enough heat to wake your taste buds without needing a fire extinguisher.
A relaxing weekend in Rehoboth Beach offers the perfect blend of charm, comfort, and coastal beauty. Strolling along the boardwalk, visitors are drawn to the mouthwatering aromas wafting from the various ice cream shops, each with its own unique flavors and personality. Whether you’re in the mood for a classic cone or something more adventurous, the creamy, delicious options make for the perfect treat while taking in the ocean views.
Year two of promising myself to ring in the New Year in a new country has not disappointed! Tokyo truly is an amazing city that offers a delightful blend of culinary delights and architectural wonders. The city is renowned for its mouthwatering ramen, which is a must-try for any food lover. The rich and savory broth, combined with perfectly cooked noodles and a variety of toppings, create a bowl of pure bliss. And let's not forget about the coffee scene in Tokyo.
It’s been almost two years to date since I posted. I’m glad to be back writing, traveling, and most of all styling, though the latter hadn’t changed much. So, I decided to accompany my friend Dom to Nashville. Nashville has been on my radar for years but was never at the top of my list. You know we all have that “Where I want to travel” list and Nashville always sat between #12-15.
Chicago has been on my list of places to travel since before I started styling. This trip was a bit pleasure and bit work which is always the perfect combo, right? In between meetings I was able to explore the city which is so rich in history and culture. The food scene is quite vast and nothing short of amazing, from Italian to French to Mexican and surprisingly even sushi!
Sartori has long been the quiet architect of contemporary menswear, and this season he turned down the volume while turning up the emotion. The palette was a sun-washed spectrum of mineral tones, stone, sand, terracotta, and olive, each whispering summer in the Dolomites rather than shouting Amalfi clichés. Fabrics? As always, Zegna’s superpower. Technical silks met featherweight wools, and a new “Airspun Linen” practically levitated down the runway.
